1 This year, Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University State Conservatory is celebrating the 35th anniversary of its establishment. Even though this is a very short period of time for an art school, our conservatory has brought up many students which have achieved so many national and international achievements, and will continue to do so. Our conservatory has also increased its international institutional accomplishments through the Erasmus Exchange Programs. The Conservatory pursues the education under the structure of three departments: Department of Music, Department of Performing Arts and Department of Musicology. Throughout the academic year, faculty members and students offer performances at distinguished concert venues of Istanbul, and hold seminars and conferences on important subjects. This info package has been preperad to introduce our conservatory housing Turkey s most distinguished academic staff. Here you will find profiles of our faculty members, historical development of our institution and lists of courses. I would like to extend my gratitude and respect to all of my collegues who have put their effort into preparing this very helpful info package.

The school, which took place in the organisation of General Directorate of Fine Arts in the Ministry of Culture until 1982, has the policy of maintaining and spreading the art of music, theatre, opera and ballet, along with the development of the national values in the universal sense. As a consequence of these general policies, the Conservatory tries to nurture the artists of the future generation with high standarts of technical and artistic abilities, as well as establishing a solid cultural background. Istanbul State Conservatory began to offer education in music and stage arts on November 1, 1971 in the building of Hasan Ali Yücel Primary School in Etiler. During academic year, the Conservatory accepted 87 students (24 boys, 63 girls) in piano, violin, violoncello, voice and ballet with 14 faculty members in a school which had only 8 classrooms. After having completed its first academic year in those inadequate conditions, the Conservatory moved to Faik Binal Primary School on 18th of July, On January 22, 1974, under the directorship of Hamdi Bektafl, Istanbul State Conservatory moved to another 9

4 building (which is called Istanbul Palace Apartment) in Taksim, Gümüflsuyu. The same year, the educational level began to rise, also with the addition of new fields of study such as: Department of Music Composition and Conducting Program Piano-Harp-Guitar Program String Instruments Program Wind and Percussion Instruments Program Department of Performing Arts Theatre Program Opera Program Ballet Program Department of Musicology General Musicology Program Ethnomusicology and Folklore Program On December 1978, under the directorship of Ersin Onay, Istanbul State Conservatory moved to the Agavat Building of Y ld z Palace complex. On June 22, 1982, according to the related law, Istanbul State Conservatory was taken from the structure of the Ministry of Culture and restructured in School of Fine Arts of Mimar Sinan University (former Academy of Fine Arts). Thus, Istanbul State Conservatory began the academic year as Istanbul State Conservatory of Mimar Sinan University School of Fine Arts. Structural changes of this kind followed each other and the Conservatory was attached to the rectorate of the Mimar Sinan University (MSU) and took the name Mimar Sinan University State Conservatory in academic year. Finally, because the name of the University changed once more in 2004, the Conservatory s name has broadened as Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University State Conservatory (MSFAU State Conservatory). On the 15th anniversary of its establishment, in fall 1986, Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University State Conservatory moved to the Baltac lar Building in the Dolmabahçe Palace complex in Befliktafl. Today the Conservatory continues the education in the same building and under the structure of three main departments: Department of Music, Department of Performing Arts and Department of Musicology. Currently the education covers part time and full time studies over a huge span of elementary school, high school, undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate degrees. Activities The faculty members and students of MSFAU State Conservatory are quite active in the country and abroad. Among these activities, weekly Wednesday Concerts, competitions, concerts by the MSFAU State Conservatory Symphony Orchestra, Conservatory Festival, Youth Concerts, master classes, seminars and conferences are all coordinated by the Conservatory. Wednesday Concerts is a regular concert series of young

5 students in which they are supposed to gain stage experience, and it forms a platform to exhibit their talents. Conservatory Festival is organised annually in order to celebrate the establishment of the Ankara State Conservatory on May 6th, It is a week long celebration with the collaboration of all departments of the school. These regular activities take place in the auditorium of the MSFAU, Atatürk Cultural Center, Cemal Reflit Rey Concert Hall and other important venues of the city. In addition to these, master classes of visiting professors, stage performances of Ballet, Theatre and Opera Programs, seminars and conferences of Musicology Departments form an important part of the activities of the school.

Since 2001, the Conservatory has successfully participated in several activities of JMM (Jeunesses Musicales de Meditérranée) which are held every November in Corsica, France.

MSFAU State Conservatory is the first institution in Turkey to become a member of AEC.
